SHOES




I love these shoes!
These 2 I can afford (they're still pretty expensive but it's worth it) and I think I'm gonna go for it! Which ones should I get?


But then, these ones are cheap! Like under $30 cheap. And they're amazing.


Which ones should I get?? Tell me!

I've been searching every corner of the internet for some type of strappy-ish heel/wedge. I don't know. I want some new shoes. Sort of like these. Right now they are the most affordable and most practical. So I might settle with them.. but there's others I would LOVE to have.
I want a new pair that is sort of along the lines of these:

Polaroid cameras


This is my current Polaroid camera I've been using.. I kind of want to get my other ones out of storage so I can see if they work.
I recently came into possession of some 779 film, which I've never used before.. I've always just bought 600 film. I just read that lots of people prefer it (779) because the color or tones where a little different and prettier. But then other people say it's the exact same thing.. hmm.. I can't wait to try it though either way.
Also I'm guessing the film that I have is probably expired and hasn't been stored in any refrigerators so the color is going to be cool anyway.

I want to get some of my other Polaroid cameras out. I want to try to use them. The ones I have are after the "Read more >>". I want to try to use the pink Cool Cam and the rainbow OneStep cause I read they can use 600/779 film. But I think the batteries are dead in them.. I'll have to check and then look into finding a way to get those batteries replaced or recharged or something.

All I did was work today. Tomorrow I have to work too but I'm gonna go get stuff to make chocolate covered peanut butter balls when I get out of work! Yeeeeaayuh. So tasteeey.
I forgot about them sort of until last night when we were watching an SNL rerun and it was the "NPR's Delicious Dish" radio show. I remember watching this one back in the 90's. hahaha It's still fuckin' funny.

Shopping list:
+ crunchy peanut butter
+ Rice Krispies cereal
+ semi-sweet chocolate chips
+ powdered sugar
+ body wash
+ mascara
+ bagels
+ cream cheese
+ chilly bears (for Dave <3)
+ swiss cheeeese
+ USB chord
(All junk food. Yeah!)


I'm also thinking about deleting my myspace page. I really don't use it to communicate with anyone anymore really. Or maybe just deleting a lot of people and only keeping a few people that I actually still even talk to.
I also need to purge a lot of people I follow on Twitter. A lot of them just talk tooooo much about nothing! I know, I know, my Twitter is all pointless garbage.. at least I try to be entertaining.
I hate having to read about everything that's happening in the media from Twitterererers. If I really gave a shit I would watch E! or TMZ or some other crap like that..
Plus we listen to Howard Stern so we get to hear all about Tiger Woods' affairs nonstop from them.

Dave also got me this shirt for Christmas.
He's sitting next to me playing Assassins Creed II. Which is one of the things I got him. I have a feeling it was a bad idea because he's gonna be playing it nonstop. haha
I'm drinking candy cane green tea. It's pretty effin' good.
We didn't end up going to Corning for Christmas. Oh well. It was actually the most non-stressful, relaxing, Christmas I've had in a long time.
I think I'm gonna make chocolate covered peanut butter balls tomorrow. And I saw some blossoming tea at Macy's the other day and I was totally gonna buy it but then I felt selfish. haha
But now I think I'll get it.. It's the prettiest thing you'll ever drink. I first had it at a Japanese steak house. I loved watching it open. It was cool.

So pretty

Christmas presents!

This is what my darling boyfriend got me for Christmas.




And there's also a t-shirt that I didn't feel like searching for online.. it is my red picture for Dec 25th.. a black t-shirt with a (red.. duh) heart on it.
<3 !

Ok the red color is getting hard to find already.. it could be because I haven't left the house also. I'm sure there's more red things out there.

I wanted to go to Corning today but Dave isn't comfortable going at all. Maybe we just won't go. I just thought it would be easier to just go tonight stay the night and then we could chill most of the day. It gets really tiring trying to do all that shit in one day.

Bangs? Y or N?

I want to cut my bangs really bad, I think...
I was thinking doing them a little asymmetrical.. But the rest of my hair is also asymmetric so it'll look stupid... maybe when my hair is all one length I'll do this one.




I was definitely leaning towards the straight blunt bangs though.. Should I do it????



Right now my bangs are a little past my nose and just pushed to the side.. very boring.
What do I do?!?





Tell me Daisy Lowe is not absolutely adorable. ^

tattoos

I definitely want to get a new tattoo or tattoos. I was thinking

maneki neko on my right arm probably near the ganesh.


or this diamond shape but in red so it would be a ruby, just below my sternum
or a couple paper cranes, just line drawings of them on my left arm.
idk...
and of course an anatomical heart somewhere...


idkk...
any ideas?.?>?>?>??>?>?>?>
tell me.

A photo an hour


I used to do the one photo an hour thing. I haven't used my camera in forever. So I decided to do it yesterday.. then I realized I had to go to work at 1:00 so I had to stop then. Actually I stopped earlier. The next full day I have off I'm gonna try to do it again I guess. It's not that interesting but oh well..

9:00 a.m.



10:00 a.m.


11:00 a.m.



12:00 p.m.




The end.
I had to go to work.

cutest hair-do

I love this up-do. Very , very cute. I wish my hair was long enough to do it.
And of course Lady Gaga does it so that automatically makes it rad.
Oh and I also want to cut my bangs. Pretty much like the chick in the first picture ^.


I wanna get my nails done soon, I think. Not a cheesy french manicure but maybe just plain old acrylic with a solid color.
Color ideas:
My Private Jet



Russian Navy





Midnight In Moscow





Here Today Aragon Tomorrow

Theses colors are all fuckin' amazing I can't decide. Can I use them all at once?
